African-American heritage of United States presidents
The topic of the African-American heritage of United States presidents relates mostly to questions and claims made by amateur historians as to whether five presidents of the United States who were accepted as white also had significant recent African ancestry. There is no disagreement that President Barack Obama (2009-present) had a Kenyan father and an American mother of mostly European ancestry (she and Obama are thought also to be descended from the African indentured servant known in colonial records as John Punch.) The academic consensus of historians is that no president other than Obama has had recent (from the colonial period in U.S. history or after) African ancestry; it rejects claims to the contrary.
== Background ==
These claims have been made by the historian William Estabrook Chancellor, amateur historian J. A. Rogers, ophthalmologist Dr. Leroy William Vaughn,〔(Dr. Leroy Vaughn, ''Black People & Their Place in History'' )〕 and Dr. Auset BaKhufu. All but Chancellor base their theories chiefly on the work of J. A. Rogers, who apparently self-published a pamphlet in 1965 claiming that five presidents of the United States, widely accepted as white, also had African ancestry.〔Rogers, J. A., ''The Five Negro Presidents: According to What White People Said They Were'' (St. Petersburg, Fla.: Helga M. Rogers, 1965; ISBN 0-9602294-8-5).〕 Vaughn's and BaKhufu's books also appear to have been self-published.〔 Vaughn's publisher, Lulu, advertised a self-publication service at its home page, as accessed February 21, 2013.〕
Historians' and biographers' studies of these presidents have not supported such claims, nor have the claims above been published in any peer-reviewed journal. These authors are generally ignored by scholars. They repeat each other's material and are classified as "rumormongers and amateur historians." Vaughn and BaKhufu have added little substantive research to their claims, although there has been extensive new documentation of race relations by others in the decades since Rogers published his pamphlet.〔〔〔
